Laravel - creating custom name on image upload using store

I am trying to upload a file using laravel Storage ie $request->file('input_field_name')->store('directory_name');

but it stores the file in the specified directory with a random string name.

Now I want to save the uploaded file with a custom name . The current time stamp is concatenated with the actual file name. Is there any quickest and easiest way to achieve this functionality.

Use storeAs()

instead:



$request->file('input_field_name')->storeAs('directory_name', time().'.jpg');

You can use the code below:

Use file facade

use Illuminate\Http\File;

Make the following changes to your code



$custom_file_name = time().'-'.$request->file('input_field_name')->getClientOriginalName();
$path = $request->file('input_field_name')->storeAs('directory_name',$custom_file_name);

Hope this code helps :)

You can also try this

$ImgValue     = $request->service_photo;
$getFileExt   = $ImgValue->getClientOriginalExtension();
$uploadedFile =   time()'.'.$getFileExt;
$uploadDir    = public_path('UPLOAS_PATH');
$ImgValue->move($uploadDir, $uploadedFile);

Try the following work:

 $image =  time() .'_'. $request->file('image')->getClientOriginalName();   
 $path = base_path() . '/public/uploads/';
 $request->file('image')->move($path, $image);

You can also try this.

$originalName = time().'.'.$file->getClientOriginalName();
$filename = str_slug(pathinfo($originalName, PATHINFO_FILENAME), "-");
$extension = pathinfo($originalName, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
$path = public_path('/uploads/');

//Call getNewFileName function 
$finalFullName = $this->getNewFileName($filename, $extension, $path);

// Function getNewFileName 

public function getNewFileName($filename, $extension, $path)
    {

        $i = 1;
        $new_filename = $filename . '.' . $extension;
        while (File::exists($path . $new_filename))
            $new_filename = $filename . '_' . $i++ . '.' . $extension;
        return $new_filename;

    }
